Why All The Fuss Over Pushchair

Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin

You'll require a double stroller to take your twins from A to B. Our range includes a range of twin prams as well as double buggies in various configurations to suit your family requirements.

Look for a stroller that can be folded in just one step, and easily put into your boot. You could also opt for a lighter design, especially when you're on busy high streets.

Side-by-Side

This is the most popular double pushchair. It is usually able to accommodate two children side-by-side. They are generally wider than single pushchairs, which means they're less agile on footpaths and can be a little tricky to navigate through the kerbs with a car attached. However, the extra width means that they're usually easier to navigate through doorways and are more evenly distributed making them easier on your back.

They can be used as a twin pram from birth and many models will take both a carrycot or 2 car seats. Some models can be converted to a single mode with a basket to the side (like the Cybex Venus).

One of the best examples of this is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 which, in Twin Mode, allows you to fit the rear seat and carrycot side-by-side. This creates a completely enclosed space for twins, Push Chairs And Prams and is perfect for infants. The pram pushchair also comes with a number of very cool accessories, including newborn cocoons, which can be attached to face either direction (for a twin-facing pram store near me) or facing forwards (for a normal single). It's not as light as other options but it is very well thought out.

Lightweight

Cybex is known for its innovative pushchairs, and the single-to-double is no exception. Its clever frame expands widthways to take two seats and you can use it as a twin from birth, thanks to the addition of two infant cocoons (PS59 each) which provide enclosed, lie-flat areas for infants. The large basket of shopping behind the seat lets it be used in mono mode for one child. And it has front and rear suspensions that can handle bumps and uneven surfaces more easily. The top choice from our reviewers.

Available in a variety elegant colors.

Tandem

If you plan to have twins you will need a tandem pushchair. This allows each child to sit and see each other. They are ideal for activities like visiting the zoo, because the kids will be able to look at all the animals together. These are also great for parents who wish to keep an eye on their toddler and baby at the same time.

Some tandem pushchairs are incredibly adaptable, since they can be converted to single mode. This is especially useful for families with more than two kids (or only your oldest is no longer a need for a buggy). This will save you from having to store a buggy empty, which can be expensive.

The Cybex Venus, for example is a model that can be used in mono or double mode. The frame can be expanded to allow for an additional seat. It's not the lightest pushchair but it has an ample basket that can be placed behind the front seat in double mode, or in the back when it's in mono mode. The seats can be placed to face each other or one could be placed higher so that it can see over the other and observe what they're doing.

Other double tandem pushchairs, such as the Joolz Geo 3 can seat one on top of the other, or side-by-side. They have a sleek, compact frame that makes it easier to maneuver through doors and aisles in supermarkets, and some models can also be used as a jogging or foldable stroller on rough terrain thanks to a four-wheel suspension and wide rear wheels.

Another advantage of a tandem pushchair pram is that it can take two carrycots, or a car seat, and buggy seat. This allows you to build an entire travel system from the beginning and save money on separate purchases. Be aware that tandems are heavier and longer, and they may be less stable when bumping up kerbs or navigating uneven surfaces. They also tend to need dismantling in order to fit into cars.
